Yantras are ancient geometric diagrams used as tools for meditation, transformation, and connection with the subtle energies of the cosmos. Rooted in the tantric tradition each yantra embodies the essence of a deity and serves as a gateway to deeper states of awareness. In this hands on course, students will be guided by Mavis through the selection, construction and painting of a Goddess Yantra. This meditative art practice allows for an intimate connection with Sacred Geometry, color, symbolism, and mantra.
We will focus on yantras associated with powerful Goddesses such as Kali, Sarasvati, Durga, Tara, and Laksmi.
Students will not only learn the meaning and purpose of each yantra but also how to activate and integrate it into their lives.
No prior artistic experience is necessary, only a willingness to explore and engage with the sacred through color, form, and inner stillness.
After registration a list of required materials will be sent to you.
